  • Beskrivelse: Set in a drawing room decorated in Louis XIII style, a magician makes dancers appear and disappear from a hexagonal box that resembles a huge cigar box.

Beyond a simple narrative, the film seeks to astound and amaze the audience through a series of visual tricks: transformations, overlays, substitutions and reverse motion, among other effects.
